Relaxation Station

I've been around dogs the majority of my adult life and have experience with dogs of all ages. I've tended to senior dogs, young pups, often dogsitting friends' dogs while they worked. I was a part of a pet sitting business for weddings. I have two senior dogs myself, so they have a soft spot in my heart, down to the pickiest of pill takers. While my old men can't enjoy as many walks, but you can bet I'll be taking yours on the strolls they need!

Krista is great with our dog, Nico. We always feel at peace when we know Krista is taking care of our baby. We would hire her for every dog house sitting if we could! Thanks again Krista

Krista was amazing to our dog, Nico! She stayed at our house while we were away for the holidays. She kept us updated, sent photos of Nico, took him for long walks and left our place clean and tidy. We would highly recommend Krista to anyone looking to put their pet in safe hands. Thanks Krista!

Krista was awesome! She communicated well throughout, sent lots of pictures to let us know how our pets were doing, and took great care of our house! It was spotless when we got home. Thanks Krista!

Krista was fantastic and I will absolutely use her again! She was very attentive and took care of my anxious/scared dog with ease.

I have 2 female boxers that have stayed multiple times now with Krista and she has become my first and most preferred place to watch my dogs while I’m away. One of my dogs has multiple food allergies and both are high energy. Finally I have found a place I can trust to leave my dogs and not worry about their well-being while I’m gone.

Krista is a diehard dog person as well as a hardworking, lovely person. I have personally been a Rover sitter for a few years and have more than once called her for practical and unique insight regarding care for a pet/dog. She's finally decided to apply her skills and instincts via Rover and I have no doubt she will find well suited clients to share her abilities with. I would leave any of my pets in Krista's care, as I know she would pay great attention, be diligent in providing correct care and communicate well. Her two fur babies (Bagel and Toopac) are a great example of her pet parent/caregiver abilities. They mesh well with new people, new pets and new environments - an ode to the care she can provide your fur baby. I recommend Krista for pets and to pet parents! She's informed, capable, non-judgmental and real.

Schedule

Despite working during the week, I'm fairly free otherwise, leaving plenty of time for play. My dogs and I have a routine and they love being around other dogs, so there will be lots of playtime, attention, and care.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pets would get gentle voices, cuddles, and two bonus friends to play with. They would be treated with extra care, patience, and love for I understand that new people can be overwhelming for any pet. My goal is to keep them as comfortable and loved during their experience with me to ease any of their anxieties with respect to their boundaries and comfort levels.

I love to stimulate the dogs in my care by going to parks, small hikes, or strolls around the neighborhood to play and activate your dogs' inner pup and release their energy. Photographs to be shared along the way!

If your dog has any special quirks or dietary needs. I'm very accustomed to dietary restrictions, needs, and support, as well as medicinal support. For medicines/routines, I prefer clear written instructions to reference for the first time or two until I build rapport with you and your animals so I can give them the proper care they need while allowing you to enjoy your time away.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
